I agree, Trev. That was wrong. I personally feel Romney was too lenient in his acceptance of her apologies. And in many ways, it's the turning of the other cheek-style of defiance that the phrase comes to embody, and it totally saps Liberals of the fight they were looking for, and no doubt it burns their shorts worse than it does the people that they attack.

However, while he accepted her apology, he made the mistake many conservatives and people in general make: they don't address their wrongdoing and they don't tell them their behavior was wrong. That's why these people are allowed to continue because no one challenges their behavior. Of course with the way Liberals blow everything up, addressingit might be giving them what they want, rather than shaming them thru more dignified behavior like Romney's. Never an easy situation.

I think "El Misfit" is correct, 100 posts is the magic number. Blame spammers for that restriction.

"Clive [Barker]'s idea of a great time is to have a nightmare about a woman with three heads and no skin who flays your body with a pitchfork. To give you some idea, NIGHTBREED has over 200 pus monsters, including one guy with a crescent moonhead like the McDonald's commercial and a fat guy with snakes that pop out of his stomach and eat your face off, and these are the GOOD GUYS. These are the people we're supposed to LIKE."-Joe Bob on NIGHTBREED

Napoleon is a good one to single out here, when he was at Waterloo, the Russians never interrupted him once!
